 # The only difference between the hier and the run flavors is the default live directory path
 # hard coded into the s6-rc utilities allowing their use without passing -l <live_dir>.
 # A FreeBSD port should follow the operating system file system layout, but there is a corner
 # case where s6-rc replacing base system init system *has* to deviate from hier(7).
 # The problem is that s6-rc requires a writeable file system
 # (to track service state, bind unix sockets, create named fifos)
 # very early in the boot process before FreeBSD used to mount /var and /var/run.
 # One way to satisfy this requirement is to mount a tmpfs directly under /.
 # The live directory shouldn't be kept on /tmp because this often a small
 # file system that could be exhausted by accident breaking s6-rc.
 # Adding a small /run tmpfs dedicated to s6-rc solves this problem.
